maybe in the filial sense......
They say to know is to love, but many of us dont know, so by way of fallacious logic, we dont love.
but we dont hate, and we aint indifferent.......proactively non-committal

Ha! I wouldn't refer to it in such grandiose terms, given I'm talking about undergrad study that exceeded requirements for a minor but wouldn't (and didn't) even qualify as a major (I was in a similar situation with my other minor, Geography/Geoscience). But I suppose I'd say spectroscopic methods/analysis - more specifically of gaseous nebulae, later on (5th year, lol). My major was actually chemistry, and I was a lab instructor in many 1st and 2nd year chem and physics labs in 3rd/4th/5th year, so the math and science behind spectroscopy was pretty familiar by the time I started doing that research. Doppler effect/red shift positional stuff early on, absorption spectrum of chemistry in gas clouds stuff later on. Jesus, that was, like, half my life ago, lol. And pretty basic stuff compared to what some of these other cats will probably get up to.

Very interesting stuff. The chemistry would be beyond me. I do remember most of what you have mentioned though. Now I would be content to just get out and star gaze, but time and health ill afford that these days.

Do either of you gents (Black Marvel and Kachino) belong to the IEEE?
Growing up, I remember our household having the first of any kind of computer amongst everyone we knew. An IMSAI 8080 I believe it was.
Ok, old trig terms.....
sine - what you do on a piece of paper, or cheque
cosine - when two of you have to sign that cheque
tan - what she does in the summer sun, at an expensive resort, after she cashed the aforementioned cheque
The square root beer of a hippopotamus is equal to the sum of an NHL bribe.
No not an IEEE member yet, I'm still working on my oiq title (I'll be taking that exam in the coming months) .

Ah yes... those great gas nebulae, always spawning new systems of stars. Must be a heck of a night sky sight compared to our boring suburban spot in the milky way.
It's 21:44 on Monday evening, I have a paper due on Wednesday and I haven't even studied the material I'm going to be writing the paper on.

Tell the teacher the dog ate the paper and if that doesn't work bite the teacher in anger.
That's the only advice I am capable of giving.
Last paper I wrote was due on a Wednesday as well. I showed up to class having written about half a page and it was supposed to be 4-10 pages. I said my printer didn't work and asked if I could email a copy and she said that was fine as long as I submitted it before midnight.
I then went home and wrote 6 more pages and submitted it at around 22:30. I ended up getting a B+ on the paper

Well then you have a lenient teacher. Maybe try to squeak in some other story.
Worst case scenario she would have declared it a day late and would have only given me 97% of the course credit for the paper. She takes off 3% per day. Some guy turned his in 26 days late last week (i.e. an idiot). It was so late and the paper was so bad he ended up getting an adjusted grade of 0% on it.

Education isn't cut out for everyone.
Half the people I end up in classes with seem to be there because their parents coerced them into it and aren't ready to be there yet, nor are they dedicated to actually learning any of the material.
I would know, I was that girl once.
